America in the Mystic River 1905 C.H.J. SNIDER

AMERICA'S CUP

The America had won the America's cup in a fleet of 7 schooners and 8
cutters competing for the same trophy, in the same race, in 18??. Lord
Ashbury, in an attempt to regain the Cup. At that time the Americans
built and entered 23 yachts to prevent him from winning. That was 23
yachts out to prevent one from winning. But Ashbury let that pass.
His --came tenth in the single race. He made no complaints, and next
year he came back with another challenger, the schooner Livonia



I was the lead CAD design officer, for the original America hull. I am
still collecting 6 digits checks, as residual payments.


AS predicted -- the truce didn't last a week.
